Where are you?

Matthew 21:6-9

So the disciples went and did as Jesus had told them. They brought the donkey and the colt, then they laid their cloaks on their backs and he took his seat on them. Great crowds of people spread their cloaks on the road, while others were cutting branches from the trees and spreading them in his path. The crowds who went in front of him and those who followed were all shouting: Hosanna to the son of David! Blessed is he who is coming in the name of the Lord!


You are part of the crowd. Like it or not, you are in this scene. The momentum has been growing....you've listened to his words, sat at his feet, walked by his side, and felt his touch healing all that burdens and wounds. He has not abandoned you EVER. He has not hesitated to accompany you as you have walked through your darkest fears...not this Lent, or any other time in your life.

You are an incredible, precious, intimately known child of God. But you are also part of the crowd of saints/sinners. Where are you? What part do you play in the drama that unfolds and pierces the fabric of time?
